Two incredible actresses and singers. Singing incredible songs, from incredible musicals. I refuse to choose.

What a great opportunity to listen to two legendary songs! Thank you 🙏🏻 😊

I have shivers all over my body listening to these songs, however Sierra is unsurpassable.

Not comparable. The first is an historic musical, the second is English opera . Each beautiful in their own right.

Well an English operetta would be more realistic

Such vastly different songs. One has Fantine lamenting the hard life she has now vs the life she thought she would have. The other has Christine mourning her beloved father. As a daughter who misses her own wonderful dad terribly, Wishing will forever hit on a different level that I Dreamed a Dream. Plus, Sierra is such a stunningly talented singer and actress!!

💞you can't compare, both things are so beautiful you'll cry and both ladies can sing really fantastically, but with different songs a comparison is not possible at all and the themes behind them are completely different. I love both musicals and both songs very much, even though I can sing along to every note, these songs are always an incredible event.... 🩷🩷🩷 (sorry for my bad English, I am from Germany)

Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again 100% - I do love both songs, but Sierra Boggess just does it for me. I’ve listened to her dozens of times but I get shivers all over my body every single time

I do love how both actresses were able to convey emotion WITHOUT crying and therefore destroying their singing. Got chills. Beautiful talented women❤❤❤

Sierra has one of, if not the most stunning voice I have ever heard in all my life. The depth and emotion she portrays through body language, facial acting and vocal talent is more than I could ever dream of. ♥🌹

Ann Hathaway did a really good job in the film. Live singers are obviously really talented but when we get them in close up the actors who can sing seem to stand out. No one beats Sierra. Beauty and voice. Perfection!

Sierra is way way better... The way she plays Christine is impeccable and that song is so beautiful that there is no contest

@sunsioux444 2 ай бұрын

I agree. somehow I thought the first singer was a bit too dramatic, extending her notes at the end of every line way too long.

@IXScasualty 2 ай бұрын

@@sunsioux444Generally the way “I Dreamed a Dream” is sung nowadays gets me disappointed. This might be a hot take, but I really like Anne Hathaway, who is raw and emotional, but not dramatic. Also “Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again” is just much more powerful, especially with Sierra singing.

@tonyscheinman3538 Ай бұрын

I give the nod to "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" (despite a couple of too-high notes); although technically "I Dreamed A Dream" was flawless in voice and quality, I didn't get the same pang in my throat and gut as "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again".

@smooth395 2 ай бұрын

The song itself or these particular performances? Performance: Sierra no contest (ETA: one thing that takes away is the dead pixels on the grave). Song: I'm still salty about my score in Solo-Ensemble freshman year on "Wishing..." but I've heard it and seen it performed live far more times than "I Dreamed a Dream" and they are both beautiful songs. I'll have to go "Wishing..." because of the emotions the actors have portrayed in the varying productions I've watched and seen. Shout out to Lea Salonga in the 25th production as Fantine after playing Eponine with a great "On My Own" in the 10th anniversary!
